I will miss Louie and his unique sense of humor. He always had a joke, and very rarely did he tell the same one twice! The other thing I loved about Louie was the love he had for his fur babies. I think that when Dakota passed away, that was the final heartache that Louie just couldn't take. He will be missed by me and the entire Martin family.
